Verdict

ROCKBURY LAD needs to shrug off a lesser effort in blinkers at Killarney but he'd previously been shaping up well and, with cheekpieces refitted, it would come as no surprise to see a better showing. The selection's stablemate Facethepuckout and Rampage are a couple of likely threats, with Pierre Lapin another worth keeping an eye on.

  1. ROCKBURY LAD
  2. FACETHEPUCKOUT (IRE)
  3. RAMPAGE (IRE)
